I notice when i switch performance on, then latch and play quantize work. but in perform on there is no play simple chords as when perform is off. I like play simple chords too with quantize and latch.
scaler 2.4 also have a problem when DAW is stop when use midi keyboard. when DAW is stop and press the mouse on chord or on a trigger pad it delay the start and quantize work correct and latch. but when i press a key on my midikeyboard(in bind 1 range) it do not latch and play quantize. is it possible that latch on midi keyboard can work too in same way as the click with mouse ?
what do you mean if that make sense ?. do you mean that for chords it make no sense because pads have often large attack and release time ?. such a quantize function is too for chords usefull and when a pad have large attack and release time there can add a play quantize setting that allow 1/16 1/8 1/4 before beat or chord end. ithis can also a % setting. so it can work good with slow attack and release time. the note off is too 1/16 1/8 1/4 earlier or % with latch on. of course there need press the trigger key more earlier, but if you play without quantize you need this do too.
the problem that play quantize not work when DAW is stop is because unify i notice now. if you want play quantize to work you need manual start stop enable. it can stay on stop and work
So it sounds like Unify is causing your problem, not Scaler? Iâm not sure how or why quantize would work when the DAW is not playing. What would you be quantizing if the DAW isnât playing? Itâs confusing me.
when the daw not run it still send clock messages so plugins can quantize. but unify have some strange settings i see not in other plugin hosts. when âMidi/quick stopâ (the default) is enable in unify then play quantize do not work in scaler. in unify need not press the play button when manual is set.
You need to be playing for âPlayâ Quantise to work, thatâs the intention - just like NI Maschine for example. Wonât do anything in stop mode as itâs designed to âplayâ in time.
Exactly the point I was trying to make. I probably phrased it wrong. To me quantize needs the DAW to be playing for the clock to work. One question for @davide - The quantize under the Humanize section, does that quantize just performances?
I was trying to follow the discussion here, and I am not sure I fully understand all the nuances, but in the process of me experimenting with quantization this little piece came out. 4 Scalers, only Scaler built-in instruments, and using various built-in performances for the new 2.4 âResolvingâ chord progression.
please try yourself or look at video. when DAW is stop then play quantize work too also when use the mouse and click on a key in scaler. this is correct and do other play quantize able plugins too. play quantize in scaler 2.4 - YouTube
Hi Benny I must apologise to you because you are quite right and now I understand your few points.
Play Quantise does work on patterns in DAW stopped mode because that was the last clock received by scaler so it is still active
Play Quantise doesnât work on individual chords but it should, I thought it used to, in fact I am a little confused so I will chat with the DEV team and get their thoughts and come back to you!
currently play quantise and latch option are available when using Expressions or Arpeggios.
I get that you are missing a play quantise and latch option for Legato Chords (plain chords without arpeggio or expression patterns applied), am I understanding correctly?
Yes this i mean. I notice there is in humanize menu a quantize menu. I test with 1/4 25% or 100%. but no notes are delay. seem this quantize settings do nothing. only swing settings work.
Donât confuse the quantise menu with Play quantise, they are seperate things. Quantise prints notes to beat/step/tick positions after the fact. Play Quantise waits for the next beat or chord duration before playing the next performance.
is there hope that there is add play quantize and latch for legato chords too. soon in a update ?. i think this is important. it is also usefull when not want realtime play. studio one have a very powerfull pattern editor that have steps. with latch and quantize there is no need to change note length to chord length and it always play in sync
In the 2.5.0 it is enhance in settings legato play quantize for performance offf is add and work usefull. But in 2.6.0 do not work. Or need i do the settings somwhere else ?. songs that work before and quantize do not do this on 2.6.0
the 2.5.0 have only the problem when play quantize is set to next beat the chord length parameter have no influence.chord stop always after 1 beat. maynbe this can fix too.
Edit: that scaler can do performances and sequences is currently for me not so good usable. because there is no display what happen. maybe you can show at least a small jpg image to see the step sequence of the performance so can see what happen on the beats. or even more better to have a editor that show and allow to edit it. maybe first the editor show only the step sequence and in alter versions it allow more and more edit features
EDIT 2: in the 2.6.0 i get no play quantize in perform modes too. I test arpeggio , strumming
